Abstract:
This paper examines three Surface Unaccusative Structures,i.e. passive structure,existential structure and unergative verbal structure. It proposes that the NP in the subject position be analyzed as base-generated Topic,which governs and commands the retained object position and assigns genitive case to its specifier. The whole process of generation involves no movement. The theory has a stronger explanatory force since it conforms to the cognitive rules.
